Can he bypass Calvin Johnson as the NFL's top receiver while becoming the first player in league history to reach 2,000 yards in a single season?

"I feel like it can be a lot more," Bryant told ESPNDallas.com on Tuesday. "That's just being honest. I honestly feel like (2,000 yards and 20 touchdowns) can potentially happen."

While Bryant's elite talent is beyond dispute, former Oakland Raiders great Tim Brown recently questioned the physical receiver's ability to make it through 16 games with an out-of-control, "kamikaze" style of play.

Bryant risked his long-term NFL future by playing through a fractured finger in December, closing out the season with a lower-back injury that left him wheelchair-bound as he exited the stadium.

Bryant has yet to run routes this offseason because of the back injury, and he could end up missing all or part of organized team activities. There's no concern, however, that the injury will linger into training camp.

Don't expect him to adopt a more cautious, less physical approach to avoid future injuries.

The final eight games of Bryant's 2012 season project to 1,758 yards and 20 touchdowns across a full season. In an increasingly pass-heavy NFL, he's capable of reaching the 2,000-yard mark in a best-case scenario.

The question is if Bryant can maintain that production level while staying out of the trainers' room.
